FAKE IDENTITY

Augusto blackmailed me.

He said that if I tried to take anything from him,

he'd report you to the police.

He'll fall in love with me.(PhÑ

I'll make him forget that bland bitch known as Isabel.

Were you able to undo your restraints?

- Where are they keeping Augusto? - Why?

I'm going to beat him until he cries and begs for forgiveness.

And then... I'm going to kill him myself.

(P Do you have a computer?

What for?

We brought this for you.

Joselito, Augusto. and Topo got away.

- They got away? - What?

I looked for the gun I used to kill Ramiro,

but I can't find it.(PhÑ

It's his life or ours.

Don't leave me.

I know where that Augusto is and I'll bring him back.

- Go then. - I'll go with you.

Stay.

Stay with them.

I don't want to put you in danger.

FAKE IDENTITY

Finally! I knew we'd meet again!

Are you in pain?

At least you were shot in the front,

unlike me, who was shot in the back by you, you coward.

Forgive me, Ramiro.

Or like me.

You left when I needed you most.

So... did your partners abandon you?(P

What's that like, Dad?

You wanted me to call you that, didn't you?

Who would have thought that you were among those who killed me.

We'll wait for you, though.

I never meant to hurt you.

I loved you like a son.

Why won't anyone believe me?

Augusto!(PhÑ

What's wrong? Calm down.

I won't! Augusto!

- Hey! - Face me, ------------!

Where's Augusto? Where is he?

So it's the silent treatment, huh?(PhÑ

You're protecting him?

Where is that bastard? Zoraida, where is he?

I partnered up with Gavino so you could be governor.

You were my pride and joy. I wanted what was best for you.

Everyone thinks I'm a traitor, but I didn't betray you.

I'd never betray you.

I would've died for you.

(P I was lied to, Eliseo.

You don't know what you're saying.

Of course I do. You lied to me again.

You knew he was in the city and didn't tell me.

You're speaking nonsense.

I'm not. It's the truth. She knew Augusto was here.

It's not her fault!

She wanted to tell you when she first found out,

but she did it to protect you.

- To protect me? - Yes.

- To protect me? - Yes, to protect you.

Or to protect her, that bastard's mistress?

You knew about that too and you didn't tell me!(PhÑ

Marlene isn't at fault.

Augusto has been missing for a while!

She knows where he is! Where is he?

I don't know, Diego. Do you know something I don't?

Do you know where he is?

I haven't heard from him in days.

Wait up, Jose. I can't go on anymore.

We haven't had anything to eat or drink.(P

I can't go on either.

What are we going to do?

We have no choice but to keep going.

Feeling weak and being dead are two very different things.

We have to keep going.

Come on, Jose.

The Colombians are going to kill us.

I have to leave the country.

Where are you gonna go?

I'll talk to my Costa Rican partners.

I'll ask them to help me get out of here.

Circe and the Ibarras won't find me there.

Hey, hey. What about me, Jose?

I care about you and you know it.

This is only temporary.

If you don't go back to Sonora, who'll keep me up to speed?

Let's go.(PhÑ

Damn it, Jose!

Guys, I found a body!(PhÑ

You can go to the station where we reported him missing.

We haven't heard from him.

I know the Colombians kidnapped him.

- The Colombians? - But he got away.

- You don't know who they are? - No. Who are they?

You don't know who your man works for?

- I don't! - They're ----, just like him!

You didn't know he was ---- either?

Know where the money for this apartment came from?

Or the money to buy that dress, which I bet was pretty pricy?

- Diego! - I didn't know!

He stole it from my family! That's where he got it!

- Now you know! - It's true.

I witnessed it myself.

Male with a bullet wound to the chest.

No ID, no phone.

Is he dead?(PhÑ

Let the paramedics do their job.

(PhÑ Get your man a plot at the cemetery.

That's where that ------------ is headed.

Diego, please!

You can house your girls and merch in my warehouse.

Please say you will. I want to protect you.

Thanks, but no thanks. We're partners, not family.

I've got enough problems with my family.

Have you heard from Joselito?(Ph

We have people watching the roads to Sonora

in case he heads over there.

We're also watching the hospitals

in case they make a pit stop with Augusto.

I'll catch them. I guarantee it.

They can't mess with you. They have no way to do it.

Do you know why Gavino's in prison and Joselito was hiding?

Because they underestimated me.

I won't be like them.

I'll hire more girls and more security staff if I have to.(PhÑ

Those bastards will want revenge.(P

What matters is getting back to what we both care about.

Our biz started off on the right foot

and things got better after all the crossings.

That's right. Let's get back to that.

We've spent a lot of money and time on personal problems.

This is a business, isn't it?

Yes, but everyone manages it differently.

Stay out of it, babe.

I'll deliver the merch just like you asked,

but I won't take my eyes off the bastards

who've been ------- with me.

Ignacio, I hate to bother you, but I'm really worried.

What happened now?

I'm desperate.

I haven't heard from Diego since yesterday.

I told him everything.

That Augusto had blackmailed me by saying he'd report him

to the police, that I divorced him

without demanding the money he stole

and I'm sure you can imagine his reaction.

I thought we had agreed we weren't going to tell him.

Yes... but I had to tell him.

Diego thought I was protecting Augusto.

I had to explain everything.

Now I'm scared they'll run into each other

and what we've worked so hard to prevent will happen.

I don't know what to tell you.

I realized yesterday this is none of my business.

What?

I don't get you.

Today, you ask for my help,

but yesterday you told me to stay out of it.

I understand.(P

I apologize. I never meant to be rude.

I thought you'd understand Diego and I had to speak alone.

I did.

Family matters are discussed amongst family.

Ignacio, you don't understand what's happening with Diego.

(P Augusto can send him to prison!

Diego... is all I have.

My son is all I really care about.

Oh... alright. Let's go look for him.

Thank you.

Come on.

Why did you turn down the Colombians' offer?

They girls don't feel safe here.

Whether we stay here or we move to the Colombians' warehouse

doesn't matter. Joselito has nothing left.

He has no men or weapons. Much less manhood.

I wouldn't be so sure.

You told me many times your cards said I'd be the boss.

Gavino's in prison, Joselito is on the run, and I'm in charge.

Circe was screwed when you turned her against me.

You made that up so she could declare war on me.

You think doing all this ---- to me would make me want you?

You're right. Your time is now.

Come with me, then. We're moving to Babel.

Alright.

FAKE IDENTITY

FAKE IDENTITY

Hey.

How do I look?

Yikes!(PhÑ

You couldn't think of anything else?

Did you talk to the Costa Ricans?

Yes. They agreed.

There's a plane waiting for you at an airport in Toluca.

You can leave today.

Good, good. Listen up, Topo.

Don't abandon ship now. Don't give up.

This is only temporary.

I'll come back as soon as I get some money and hire men.

This isn't the first time I have to pick myself back up.

You're the only one who's always been loyal to me.

You know you can count on me.

Topo, I love you, man. You're like a brother to me.

If it weren't for you, I'd be dead and buried like Piochas.

When I come back and reclaim my rightful place,

you'll be there with me.

How do I look as a blond?

I don't look like a Joselito, do I?

Here's your new phone. Let's go.

Paloma! I finally made it.

You're here!

Of course I am. I won't let you do this alone.

Are you really scared?

The doctor says it's a simple procedure, but I'm terrified.

Of course you are. I would be too.

Doctor! There he is.

- Doctor. - Ms. Paloma Lujan.

Are you ready?

We're all set.

I'll be with you after I finish one last appointment.

Have a seat, please.

Thank you.

See you soon.

You're happy because this is new.

New beginnings are nice.

It's nice to have your girl close by,

but reality will sink in soon.

Reality? What reality?(PhÑ

I see you and Gaby. You're not exactly upset.

I'm a grown man.

We're both adults and we're both experienced.

You're just a kid.

You only learned how to wipe your ass yesterday, man.

- What do you know? - I'm serious.

You rushed into moving in with her.

If you move too fast, it'll end too fast.

You're so negative.

I'm having lots of fun with Dianita.

Spending the night with her was like sleeping among the stars.

Don't take this the wrong way,

but how many girls have you done it with?

How many girls have you had sex with?

You know Dianita's the only one.

That's just it. You only know one star.

Love isn't something you can cook up in the microwave.

Love is complex.

It goes in a pot and it needs water, oil, eggs, flour.

It needs to be stirred slowly.

You have to experience it, but you rushed in.

Well, now you've made me hungry.

But no, it's not like that.

Dianita and I get along.

I want to get married and have kids with her.

- That'd be nice, huh? - Don't say nonsense.

You're a kid. Don't mess up your future.

You're very negative today.

I think things aren't going well between you and Gaby,

so you want the same to happen to me and Dianita.

No, that's not it. I'm happy with my girl!

In fact, I'm planning a surprise for Gabriela

that'll finally win her over.

What are you going to do?

I'm going to bring her sister over from Venezuela.

- Think about that. - Damn!

If she doesn't fall for me after that, she never will.

I'd fall for you.

Just think about what I said.

Thank you, Nuria.

Hey, you don't need to thank me anymore.

We're in this together, okay? Do you need email confirmation?

A letter, maybe?

Who would've thought you'd be my shoulder to lean on?

Or that I would feel so... so awful?

Do you feel sick? Did you tell the doctor?

No, that's not it. It's something else.(P

Do you remember when we came here to get my test results?

Yes.

I thought... they were going to tell me that the baby

and my pregnancy were fine.

Jim was very loving after I told him I was pregnant.

I got my hopes up.(PhÑ

I grew fond of the idea of us being a family.

Can you imagine Jim, me, and our baby?

Everything's under control.

I'll ask my boss for a loan

and we'll use that to get you a passport.

I'll get you the ticket later.

What do you mean I can't?

I'll get you out of Venezuela before December.

Hello?

Hey!

How are you?

Your sister told me you'd left the house(PhÑ

and I figured you were here but didn't say a word.

Thanks. I moved in with Chucho.

Marlene found out and she made a scene.

No! She was here?

I'll tell you about it later. I'm running late.

Have a good day.

Do you know in which gas station Chucho works?

Gas station?(P

Yes, I heard him mention it once.

I think I know where it is, but I'm not sure.

You should ask him next time you see him.

Okay. Bye, Gaby.

Bye.

Yes.

He's fair and has gray hair.(P

- Did they find him? - Yes, yes.

Great. I'm on my way.

Thank you.

What happened?

A man with a bullet wound to the chest was found.

His description matches Augusto's.

- I'll go... - I'll go with you.

- Will you? - Will you watch the kids?

Of course.

Thank you so much.

- Good luck. - Let's go.

Keep me posted.

I'm so scared. What if it is him?

It'll be okay, sweetheart.

I'm crazy, aren't I?

I didn't want to be pregnant and now I do.

No, I don't think you're crazy.(

It can happen to anyone in your position.

You're a good person.

You think so?

Are you sure you don't want to call Jim before you do this?

I don't know.

Paloma, please come with me.

Come on.

I can't... I can't do this!

You can. It'll be quick, you'll see.

Your business? What kind of business?

First of all, you have to understand(P

that Jose is out of the picture.

Jose may be on the run, but that doesn't mean he's out.

He paid us a visit recently. Some of his men are still here.

They don't know Jose is broke, that his biz has sunk,

(PhÑ and that he has no support.(P

- Really? - Yes, really.

I promise Jose is history.

So basically, Babel doesn't belong to Jose anymore.

And you're here to give me control of the business?

No, don't get it twisted.

I said the business doesn't belong to Jose anymore.

It's mine now.(PhÑ

FAKE IDENTITY

Are you kidding me?

First, I partnered with Gavino.

When he landed in prison, Joselito named himself boss.(P

I had to put up with that brute.

He used his gun and threats to turn this place into hell.

And now you're going to replace them both?

Relax. It's only fair.

Gavino's in prison.

Circe is the only Gaona left.

Therefore, she's the boss.

Understood?

She's scary, your... cousin?

Felipa.

Wipe that look off your face.

I won't screw you over like Gavino or Jose.

You won't? Gee, thanks!(P

That's not my style.

I've been doing this for years

and I've learned that people like you only have one style.

No, you're wrong.

Seeing is believing.

I need Babel to continue to be the perfect front.

It can't arouse any suspicions.

In order for that to happen, it needs to keep running smoothly.

I'll let you handle that.

You can manage this place however you want.(PhÑ

Seeing is believing.

I only need two things.

To be able to launder my money

and to store my merch in the warehouse.

What about the smuggling and prostitution ring?

No, I don't care about that.

You can end it whenever you want.

I won't mess with your work.

You won't even notice that I'm working here.

Deal?

Is that all true?

Because it sounds like a fairytale.

You have my word.

That's more valuable than a signed contract.

Jim isn't answering. He's probably busy.

Forget it.

If he calls back, don't tell him anything.

I want to be the one to tell him.

So... are you ready?

No, Doctor. I'm not.

I'm scared.

Everything's going to be okay.

I have no choice, do I?

Don't worry, okay?

I'll be here till you get out and feel better.

I know you're not much of a believer,

but I'll pray to the Virgin and ask for everything to be okay.

Pray to whomever you have to.

- I love you. - Ditto.

It's going to be okay.

Let's see if we'll see each other again.

Don't say that!

Good luck!

Hello?

Ramona?

What's up, girl? How are you?

Just calling to let you know I have what you asked.

Are you at Babel? Let me know so I can get it to you.

No, I'm at the hospital.

What? How come?

Nothing. I'm here with Paloma.

Paloma? Why is that?

She had a checkup at the gynecologist.

And she needs you for support?

Yes. That's what friends are for.

Right. Will you be long?

Yes.

There are several women ahead of her.

What's with all the questions?

Just feeling curious. I'm a good friend, too.

Alright. Bye.

Who is it?

Fernanda.

It's open!

I finally found you!

I called and left messages for you, but you didn't answer.

What is it?(P

Your mom became worried after your conversation last night.

You rushed out like a madman to find Augusto.

I know you and I don't want you to do anything crazy

and add another crime to the list.

Relax. I don't know where he is.

He vanished again.

What do you mean by that? Who is he running from?(PhÑ

He was working with Circe.

What?

Yeah, he and other guys from the cartel betrayed her.

Things got ugly, there was a shootout,

he was shot, but he got away.

Good Lord! How low can Augusto sink?

Oh, please! Are you really surprised?

He's garbage! Why are you so surprised?

Calm down. He fooled us all.

No, he didn't fool me. I knew he was garbage!

It seems he's starting to pay for everything he's done.

Divine justice.

He hasn't. This is only the beginning.

There's no such thing as divine justice.

We have to do justice for ourselves, and we will.

Please don't do anything crazy...

Don't start.

My head really hurts and I'm not in the mood.

Please leave 'cause I don't want to take it out on you.

Don't talk to your mother like that.

- Stay out of it, Salas. - Alright, we'll go.

Take something for your headache.(PhÑ

Maybe it'll improve your mood.

I don't get why Mr. Gavino needs that fool Augusto.

The bullets didn't kill you, but they halved your IQ.

(PhÑ If the lawyer bribed the judge and the governor,(P

then why does Mr. Gavino need Augusto?

Know what's going to happen when the boss gets out?

The press will go after the judge

and ask why he was released after he killed the late mayor.

There's only one way to remedy that.

Which is?

By making Mr. Augusto testify in favor of the boss.

He has to say Mr. Gavino would never shoot Eliseo.(PhÑ

Eliseo's stepfather will say Mr. Gavino's innocent.

And the boss will be seen like an angel.

Last I heard, Auggie was in Mexico City

and he'd partnered up with Circe.

We have to find him.

I called the number you gave me, but no one answered.

Hello?

It's over, Chief.

The Colombians and Circe screwed me over good.

Listen, you'll have to stop moving girls till I get back.

And you'd better be careful.

Now that the business has gone to hell, they'll come for you.

FAKE IDENTITY(P

What is the meaning of this?(PhÑ

They aren't animals, -------!

Release them right now!

Hurry up, slowpoke! My time is precious!(P

Now!

Don't worry, girls. You're going to be okay.

I'm not here on behalf of Jose.

Don't be afraid of her. Circe will set you all free.

Get back! Move!

The Gaona Cartel doesn't control Babel anymore.

You boss is broke. He has no guns or business.

You don't need to be afraid anymore.

If you want to stay here, then that's your business.

But my offer is that if you side with me,

I promise you'll never go through this again.

Those of you who are interested step forward.

Listen, you're free now.

Stay here or return to Sonora. That's your decision.

But I promise you'll never go through this hell again.

Got it?

Yes.

Alright.

Go on.

Be free!

Good job, Circe.

This is unlike anything you've taken before.

It's strong, intense, and effective.

Thanks for getting it to me so quickly.

I'll put it on your tab.

Yes, I'll pay for it.

The results will be wonderful.

I've been using it for four days

and I already have a guy who's in love with me.

He's young. He's crazy about me.

He says I'm hot.

You'd die if you saw him. I swear you would.

(P How's Paloma doing?

She's better now. It's just...

Don't. I was just being polite.

I'll put it on your tab.

See you.(PhÑ

- You owe me. - Yeah.

I'm so nervous. I've never seen a body.

What will I do if it is him?

It's not him. He's okay.

Hello.(P

Who's going to identify the body?

I am.

- Follow me, please. - Should I tag along?

No, no.

It's going to be awful. I'll be right back.

Is this it?

Thank you.

Wait, wait.

Oh you!

Where are you going?

What's the rush? We have plenty of time.

Nuria went shopping with Paloma.

There's time.

How do you know that?

Did you talk to her? Did you tell her anything?

Why are you laughing?

Are you scared I'll tell her about our arrangement?

Don't you dare, Ramona. Don't you dare.

Oh, I'm so scared.

Take your clothes off and do your job.(P

Alright.

But this is a mutually beneficial partnership.

Oh!

My favorite number.

13.

I want you to dance for me.

Strip and dance.

That comes with a different price tag.(P

You don't say. Show me what you can do first.

(PhÑ Whatever you say, boss.

Yeah!

Don't call us. We'll call you.

Thank you.

What happened?

It wasn't him.

It wasn't him.

He's in critical condition.

If we want to stop the bleeding

and drain the fluid in his lungs, he'll need surgery.

Have we heard from his relatives?

No, Doctor.

We contacted the police because we couldn't identify him.

FAKE IDENTITY

Welcome back to Babel, girls.

We'll work from here from now on.

There's nothing for you to do upstairs.

We won't mess with Jim. Understood?

- Understood. - Good.(P

Unload the cars. Hurry, girls.

Okay.

Well, I'm surprised.

I must admit I prefer your style to Jose's.

Hey! Don't compare me to him.

From now on, you'll manage Babel

and you'll keep the people upstairs from coming down here.(

If you do that, you won't even notice I'm here.

Got it?

- Got it. - Good.

Go work on your show.

How do you feel?

A little better.

The doctor says you can go home soon.

- Thank you. - Excuse me.

I told people at work you couldn't make it today.

Really? Did they ask why?

I said you were handling some personal business.

(P Oh, Nuria.

What would I have done without you?

Can you imagine me here by myself?

I owe you big-time, don't I?

Big-time. I know where you live.

I'll stop by to collect. Don't think I won't.

Right now you just have to rest.

Does it hurt?(PhÑ

Yes. So much.

It hurts here.

He's not at the hospital or the morgue.

What should we do?

Diego said he was wounded.

We'll have to check the other hospitals.

Then we'll go to another hospital.

- Know what I've been thinking? - What?

What if Joselito took him to Sonora?

- No! - Wait.

- Cartels do that. - Don't say that.

It's what they do! I can't help it!

Diego said he was trying to get away from those guys.

Hold on.

Hello?

Yes, this is she. What is it?

Yes, I called.

Who is it?

Oh? Where?

Who is it?

Great. I'm on my way.

A Locatel agent.

They found someone with a bullet wound

who looks a lot like Augusto.

Let's go then. Let's get a taxi.

There's been an increase in the theft of pick-up trucks.

Verify this information.

Chavez.

I need to talk to him, miss. It'll just be a minute.(P

Is there anything new?

Are there any unusual reports or phone calls?

You know what I mean, don't you?

Yes, but nothing's come up, sir.

You said you had a friend in Mexico City

who's also an officer and who was always willing to help.

Could he find something out for me?

I need to know if someone was admitted recently

to a public hospital or the like.

Do you think he can get that for you?

I'm sure he could. We just have to call him.

Who should I ask about?

My son, Porfirio.

Consider it done, sir.

It's a personal call.

Hey, Piochas.(PhÑ

Everyone here is clueless.

You can't expect me to calm down, you fool!

If Jose was telling the truth,

one of those girls will report me.

I'm sure of it!

Thank you for joining us once again.

I was doing business.

Not the best kind of business, huh?

It's all I have.

We're back.

I'm thrilled!

And we walked in through the main doors.

Do I get to keep everything? Am I in charge?

- Auntie. - Yes?

There are better things for you to do by my side.

Come on, Circe.

You'll be in charge of the money laundering

and storing the merch in the warehouse.

Bo-ring!

I promised the gringo. He was very excited about it.

What is it, Mr. Ibarra?

Babe, a little birdie told me

Joselito is headed towards a private airstrip in Toluca.

He's trying to get away.

My men are on it.

I called in case you wanted to tag along.

I don't like the things you're saying about her.

Did I lie?

No, there's no helping her.

She messed things up by getting involved with him.

But it's still not cool.

Hello?

Jose turned up.

He's trying to leave the country.

I'm going to Toluca.

Send me the address.

I bet that bastard Augusto is with him.

See you soon. Okay.(PhÑ

What is it?

- I need your help. - Let's go.

Come with me.

- Alright. - I'll fill you in on the way.

Oh, God! That's him, Doctor.

His name is Augusto Orozco.

Contact the authorities.

Yes, Doctor.

How is he? What's wrong with him?

What is his condition?

The patient is in critical condition.

I can see that, but what's going to happen next?

There's some internal bleeding and surgery is his best bet.

If I don't operate, he could die.

Then what are we waiting for? Do the surgery.

Who are you to him?

He is... my... fiancé.

You'll have to sign off and authorize the surgery.

Is there another way to do it?

Not unless there's another relative.

I have to be honest with you.

He was very weak when he arrived...

and he might not survive the surgery.

- Excuse me. - Thank you, Doctor.

What am I going to do now?

What if he dies?

- (PhÑ - Hey. - What's up?

- How's it going? - Good.

Are we all set? Is the jet ready?

Yeah, yeah. My bosses are expecting you.

I have to leave ASAP.

So... how long is the flight?

3 to 3.5 hours.

I don't like flying. Where are we headed?(P

Costa Rica.

Where exactly?

La Fortuna. It's a town in the jungle.

Cool.

- ---! They're coming!

Take cover! Run!

(PhÑ Cover us!

Coming through!

Kill him!

Run, man!

Move in!

Come on! I'll cover you!

He's getting away! Cover me!

You got it!

Run!

Cover me!

Come on!

I bring you good news, sir.

We have been very lucky

and we have our first hearing with the judge tomorrow.

Really? So soon?

You asked for efficiency and I delivered.

You know which palms to grease. Money makes the world go round.

Yes, sir.

We have to focus on getting you ready for the hearings.

How many will there be?

Two or three max.

But we have to make the most of them.

Alright.(PhÑ

Everyone who betrayed me had better get ready.

I'll show them who's in charge.(

I know I shouldn't ask because you've always

avoided talking about this, but I can't help it.

Slow down.(PhÑ

You're going down a very dangerous path.

Sir, I need to know who killed Eliseo Hidalgo.

Run!(PhÑ

Check for survivors!

Move it, Hot Mama! Check on these guys!(P

Cucaracho! Don't move, ------------!

(PhÑ See you around!

Come on!

Take off already!

Who cares who did it? We're negotiating my release.(P

Yes, but we need to create a credible and airtight alibi.

People don't care if you're a narco or not.

They want whoever's guilty, whoever killed the mayor.

Eliseo is a martyr now. They worship him.

If we're going to make them believe you're innocent,

we need to find whoever is guilty.

I can't give you that name.

I don't understand why you're protecting Eliseo's murderer.

Don't get it twisted. I'm not protecting anyone.

I have something very special in store for that person.

It's far worse than prison.

I'll say it one last time.

I can't give you that person's name.

Diego.

He's gone!

That bastard!

You got away, ------------! Where are you going?

He's gone.

That plane ain't going down no matter how much we shoot.

- What about that guy? - He was left behind.

Where is he going?

Costa Rica.

What?

Costa Rica.

Kill him.
